Global Fire Safety Equipment Market Overview, 2029

Equipment used to put out flames or safeguard users against them is known as fire fighting equipment. At the scene of a fire, it may be employed by qualified fire-fighters, unskilled bystanders, or integrated into the construction of a building. With the increasing understanding about the hazards and the risk of the possible fire occurrence and the intensity of the loss it can bring into the life & property, the demand for fire safety equipment has inclined considerably. The fire accidents not only cause life loss but also affect the construction quality and content, which might not result in immediate damage but can be fatal in the long run. In many cases, fire burn is not the primary cause of death, but the injuries due to asphyxiation from poisons smoke fume, heart attacks due to panic, structural collapse, etc. are the top reasons. This can be avoided beforehand with the detection of the fire indications and thus gain enough time to evacuate the building. The market is led by the fire detection segment, which aids in identifying the fire breakout in its development stage itself. The high price and the unwanted panic created due to the false detection acts as the major market constraint in the fire detection segment. The advanced fire alarm systems are designed in a way that they pass on the detected information to the emergency responder and thus aid the control process. Fire suppression equipment is highly preferred in hotels, schools, and hospitals due to its ease of use.

According to the research report "Global Fire Safety Equipment Market Outlook, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the Global Fire Safety Equipment market was valued at more than USD 53.18 Billion in 2023, with the CAGR of 5.24% from 2024-2029. Increasing urbanization and industrialization across developing regions have heightened the demand for advanced fire safety systems, particularly in sectors like manufacturing, energy, and construction. Governments are also implementing stricter safety regulations and building codes, mandating the installation of fire detection and suppression systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. A growing awareness about the importance of fire safety, fueled by the rising number of fire-related incidents, has led businesses and households alike to invest in more reliable fire safety solutions. Technological advancements, such as smart fire alarms, Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled fire safety devices, and automation in firefighting systems, are reshaping the market, allowing for better integration and monitoring of fire safety equipment. Furthermore, the increasing focus on sustainability has pushed the demand for eco-friendly fire extinguishers and systems that minimize environmental damage. These trends reflect the expanding scope of the market, with innovations and regulations paving the way for future growth.

The main drivers of the increase in demand for fire safety equipment in a variety of applications are the protection of human life and property from calamities caused by flames, whether they are natural or man-made. Additionally, the Asia Pacific regions growing nations, such as China and India, are experiencing rapid urbanisation and industrialization, which makes a well-established system to detect and prevent fires necessary. Due to favourable legislation and foreign investments, India's IT and retail sectors are expanding quickly, which is driving up demand for fire safety equipment including fire alarms and extinguishers to protect people. The implementation of fire safety equipment is required in new construction, reconstruction, and renovation projects, according to favourable government policies like China's Code of Design for Building Fire Protection and Prevention and Japan's Code of Design for Building Fire Protection and Prevention, which also has a positive impact on the industry's development. The demand from the residential sector is also anticipated to support the industry's growth owing to the rising awareness campaigns, which may be spread through basic education or/and the internet and print media.

The continuous technological advancement in smart home automation has forced the manufacturers to launch a line of intelligent equipment which is programmed to send alters through internet connectivity. Some of the technologies which are also growing and boosting market and increasing over the projection period, it is predicted that the market would grow due to the integration of cutting-edge technology in fire safety equipment. Modern technologies are being incorporated into fire protection devices by manufacturers because to the harm to people and property posed by flames. The development of smart buildings uses Internet of Things (IoT)-driven Smart Connected Things (Scot), which are developing as infrastructures that are future-ready. These systems are created to identify the probable existence of fire before the conventional smoke detectors by using sensors to precisely monitor a building's temperature. Over the projected period, this is anticipated to improve market growth.

Additionally, smoke detectors with cutting-edge sensor technology that can discriminate between smoke from a fire and smoke caused by cooking are emerging as attractive solutions, particularly in the residential and hospitality sectors. In addition, it is projected that visual image detection (VID) software, which is configured to recognise pixels indicative of fire smoke and may inform residents and the fire safety department, will spur market expansion in the years to come. Over the course of the projected period, such innovations in the sector are anticipated to fuel market expansion.



In the year 2020, nearly half of the market share was held by the regions of the Asia Pacific and Europe, while it was North America that dominated the global market. The Middle East & Africa region is expected to be growing with the spree in the construction industry in the coming period. The major developing economies across the world like India, Indonesia, China, Colombia, etc. are moving towards the establishment of smart cities which is to fuel the overall market growth in the coming period. Coupled with this, the government guidelines regarding the installation of fire safety equipment are to aid the market growth in developing countries. While the prominent players are targeting more towards their expansion in Asia and Latin America, the local players are also gaining a considerable market. In addition, the leaders in the market are acquiring and collaborating with top companies in the market to enhance their offerings in the market and expand their customer base. Top of it, in the Asia Pacific the market, has a high presence of alternative products from China, which is cheaper to import. However, the recent controversies among the countries and the increasing failure of these products in time of need caused a decline in the use of unbranded alternatives. This has made it possible for many global players are now targeting Asian countries.

During the Covid-19, there was impact a lot for products and supply as well. Every business in the world has been impacted by the COVID-19 virus epidemic since December 2019. Governments have imposed restrictions on the transit of people and products due to the ongoing rise in the number of virus-infected individuals. To stop the spread of the virus, temporary closures of operations have occurred in the industrial and construction sectors, academic institutions, shopping centres, and office buildings. The border closures and factory closures have had an influence on the production, distribution, and sales of a variety of industries, which has halted the development of safety items and their use in structures. However, following a 6-7 month lockout, firms are slowly starting up again, including those in the construction sector. With the start of building projects, supply chain efficiency will make it easier to progressively increase the purchase of new fire safety goods. It is crucial to keep in mind that temporary company closures and travel restrictions were implemented to stop the spread of COVID-19.
